Pattra Dodd, FL LCSW SW11360

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I provide evidence-based therapy rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help individuals better understand the connection between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. My approach is warm, collaborative, and goal-oriented, designed to support you in identifying unhelpful thought patterns, building coping skills, and making meaningful, lasting changes.

In our work together, I will help you recognize how your thoughts influence your emotions and actions. We’ll explore strategies to challenge and reframe negative thinking, develop practical skills for managing distress, and cultivate more adaptive responses to life’s challenges. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, stress, or past trauma, CBT offers tools that empower you to take an active role in your healing and growth.

My therapeutic style includes:

Unconditional Positive Regard – I provide a nonjudgmental, supportive space where you feel heard, valued, and accepted.

Active Listening – I fully engage with your story to ensure your experience is validated and understood.

Gentle Challenge – I respectfully encourage you to confront difficult thoughts and behaviors in a way that fosters insight and resilience.

Faith Integration – For clients who desire it, I offer the opportunity to integrate faith-based perspectives and explore biblical truths as part of the healing journey.

Whether you're new to therapy or returning to it, I’m here to meet you where you are and walk alongside you at your own pace.
